As they
Dig your ditches
Count my stitches
Generation justice wishes for
World at war, final score
Media come and abhor us
As these are hard times
We'll work harder, harder
Through these hard times
And I'll work harder, harder
Divided nation, in sedation
Overload of information
That we have grown up to ignore...
Mediocrity applauded
Through these hard times
We'll work harder, harder
Through these hard times
And I'll work harder, harder
For resolution
Show me some revolution
This battle will be won
Forced to count the hours
Since two towers
Fell to fiction
Those higher powers
putting us to war
Who keeps score?
Ignorance is still adored
And through these hard times
We'll work harder, harder
Give me hard times
I'll work harder, harder
For revolution
Hard time for some resolution
Time for some revolution!
This battle will be won
Battle, now
If they only see you with their fear
And they only hear you with their pride
And they only see you with their fear
And they only hail you with their pride
Then work harder, harder, harder, harder,
harder, harder, harder, harder, hard times
